While continuing to customize my "new" WinXP installation it becomes more and more annoying when the system can't do things the my old Win2K system was able to do, such as display PEF files as thumbnails. I mean really, there was no official support for that in Win2K but I was able to find a third party shell extension that worked just fine. In spite of having Microsoft's latest WIC extension neither Microsoft nor Pentax Codecs did anything, except take up valuable ram. However I've found a solution, in case anyone is still running XP and would like the convenience of viewing PEF files, (and a bunch of other RAW formats including DNG), and had the same problem I had.

On the other hand I didn't write it and Guarantee nothing, but so far it works for me. Oh, and like most of the best things in life it's free.
